Answer:
a) y = 10x +500
b) $500
c) $15 for 100; $10.50 for 1000
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>a)</h3>
We assume the given "cost per unit" is the variable cost per unit. The total cost (y) for x units, given some fixed cost (b), is ...
y = 10x +b
For 100 units, this is ...
1500 = 10(100) +b
500 = b . . . . . . . . subtract 1000
The cost function rule is ...
y = 10x +500
__
<h3>b)</h3>
The fixed cost is the cost of producing 0 units:
y = 10(0) +500
y = 500 . . . . . . . the fixed cost in dollars
__
<h3>c)</h3>
The average cost (ac) of producing n units is the total cost divided by n:
ac(n) = (10n +500)/n = 10 +500/n
The average cost for 100 units is
ac(100) = 10 +500/100 = 15 . . . average dollar cost for 100 units
The average cost for 1000 units is ...
ac(1000) = 10 +500/1000 = 10.50 . . . average dollar cost for 1000 units
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you plot the focus and the directrix you see that the focus is above the directrix. Since a parabola always wraps itself around the focus, this parabola opens upwards and has the standard form equation:
where h and k are the coordinates of the vertex and p is the number of units between the vertex and the focus, or the vertex and the directrix. This number of units will be the same for both since the vertex is smack dab inbetween the focus and the directrix. The focus is also on the axis of symmetry, which means that it shares the x coordinate with the vertex (which is actually the h coordinate) of -5. Halfway between the y value of 5 and the y value of -1 is 2. So the vertex is located at (-5, 2). The number of units between the vertex and the focus is 3, so the equation is:
and simplify a bit to

I'm not sure how far down you need to simplify that. Taking it a few steps further gives you:
and then to

It all depends upon the form you're being asked for.
-2x+3=5x-4
3+4=5x+2x
7=7x
x=1
y=5x-4=5*1-4=5-1=1

Answer:
15/40
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
approximately 1.58 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the function h(t)= -16t^2 + 40 = to 0 (the height above the ground when the ball hits). Then solve h(t)= -16t^2 + 40 = 0 for time (t):
-16t^2 + 40 = 0 becomes 16t^2 = 40. Solving for t^2: t^2 = 40/16 = 5/2.
Finally, we take the square root of this last result to determine t:
t = sqrt(10/4) = (1/2)sqrt(10)
The car hits the ground after (1/2)sqrt(10) seconds, or approximately 1.58 seconds.
